EASY AND DELICIOUS SLOW COOKER CASSOULET
I am married to a chef, but I can't cook. So I make a lot of food in my slow cooker when it's my night to cook. We love France and French cooking, and this recipe is a wonderfully simple, elegant cassoulet that even I can make and he loves. Wonderful for cold nights and dinner parties. Double the recipe for leftovers - it melds overnight very well.

Steps:
- Slice the onions, about 1/4" thick. Chop the carrots, celery, and potatoes into 1/2" pieces. Slice the garlic.
- Put the onions, carrots, celery, potatoes, garlic and beans into the crock pot and stir to combine. Add herbes de provence, salt, pepper, and bay leaf and stir again.
- Pour tomatoes (undrained) and broth over the veggies in the pot.
- To make the bread crumb topping - combine olive oil, bread, parsley and garlic in a food processor; puree on high until finely crumbled. Sprinkle half of the bread crumbs on top of the crock pot mixture.
- Cover and cook on low heat 6-8 hours.
- Just before serving, saute remaining bread crumbs in a dry skillet until lightly toasted. Stir the cassoulet, then top with the toasted bread crumbs.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use dried beans that have been soaked overnight. This will help them cook more evenly and reduce the cooking time.
- If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them stand for 1 hour.
- Use a variety of beans in your cassoulet. This will add flavor and texture to the dish.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables in your cassoulet. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, leeks, and turnips.
- Season your cassoulet well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs. You can also add a bay leaf or two for extra flavor.
- Cook your cassoulet low and slow. This will help the flavors to develop and the beans to become tender.
- Serve your cassoulet with a side of crusty bread or rice.
